Thomas Aris was a bookseller and printer on Birmingham High Street between 1741 and 1761, and published the Birmingham Gazette, the town's first surviving newspaper. His success as a printer is perceivable in the size of his Georgian townhouse. You can find out more about him here.

The image below zooms into the door which clearly reads 'Thomas', so probably the rest says Aris's House.
